The console version has been officially cancelled. CDProjekt's statement:

Quote:

After recent technical evaluation of The Witcher: Rise of The White Wolf, CD Projekt RED has decided to suspend development of the project. This decision was made because the company saw a high risk that the final product will not meet the quality expectations of CD Projekt RED. We have already started to look for other possible solutions to address this situation.

A comment from Adam Kiciński, CEO of CD Projekt RED:
“This decision was one of the hardest we’ve ever had to make as a company. We have put our hearts, a lot of our time and energy into this project. Because of that, development was in a very advanced stage. However, there was serious danger that we would miss our target release date, but more importantly to us, that the project would not meet our own expectations of quality. Our main goal is always to make every release better than the previous one. Unfortunately, this project was not going in the right direction. We are now looking into all possible scenarios, and we will do all we can to retain our fans’ confidence in us. We simply will not let them down; the quality of our games remains the highest priority.”

Since The Witcher’s release in October 2007 most of the CD Projekt RED team has been working on another major project. Information about this title will remain secret for the time being.

CD Projekt RED will reveal the new project in the coming months.

Good riddance tbh. Majority of console players didn't even want this game, it seems like the only people who wanted console version were the ones who finished PC version 2-3 times and wanted to play it again with possibly some new additions. Well that won't happen now so it's all irrelevant I guess.

It's only good riddance if they actually start work on a PC sequel now.

i'm guessing they canceled it because of their lack of experience with programming for consoles. wouldn't make sense, then, for their mystery project to be a console game too. and even if it's not the witcher 2, i trust cd proj is gonna make something cool anyway

Bioware had no problem to put it on xbox (KOTOR used a modified Aurora engine). I'm quite sure CD-Project altered the engine just as much for The Witcher.

Good news for those that still care about this game or haven't played it yet. Smile

Quote:
The Witcher: Enhanced Edition 1.5 is the newest version of the game, including all bonus content from The Witcher: Enhanced Edition and five additional fan-made adventures. Most importantly, The Witcher: Enhanced Edition 1.5 is completely DRM-free! Playing The Witcher will be even more fun without any form of annoying copy protection. Moreover, the 1.5 version of The Witcher will remove the disc check, allowing you to play the game without the DVD in the drive.

All available versions of the game will be upgraded to 1.5, including the forthcoming The Witcher: Enhanced Edition Director’s Cut for North American gamers.

Source : Worth Playing

Quote:
The team is also announcing The Witcher: Enhanced Edition Director's Cut for North Americans, which will incorporate the patch, and what sounds like previously removed "adult content", including references to homosexuality, rape, domestic violence, etc. No word yet on when this will arrive in shops (digital or retail), but check the official site linked below in the coming weeks for further details.

Look, everyone already knows how stunningly awesome even VANILLA "Witcher" was - so an expanded content pack, for free, just further cements the deal. Ignore the trolls, they're missing out on greatness ^_^

Excellent news!!! I am currently going through this game for the first time and it's absolutely incredible! These devs are awesome and it made me sad when the X360 version failed. It would have been more money for a well deserving dev team. This will make me go through it again once I have solved the EE.

Well, even the EE had a few leftover "weird dialogues" where I unavoidably felt that half the conversation was missing, despite the valiant effort to root them out. I hope that now we can experience the entire thing.

1.5 only turns your vanilla into EE not DC ... for Usa
Europien allready have the EE with DC


speaking of superior intelligence, find a new translator so you type your sentences in english correctly.

none the less, im not sure why I even bother arguing with you, it's like yelling at a brick wall

Patch 1.5 coming 08. 07. 2009.
Quote:
The patch (coming July 8, 2009) focuses mainly on removing troublesome DRM, allowing you to play the game without the disc, while providing additional hours of fun thanks to new adventures created by the fan community. Patch 1.5 is the next stage of The Witcher’s life, and is also a means of expressing our thanks to the modding community for their hard work on creating the adventures. The update will also be included in forthcoming The Witcher: Enhanced Edition Director’s Cut; more info on that product will be released shortly.

Patch 1.5 features:

Modifications:

copy securities (DRM) are removed
playing the game no longer requires the game disc in the drive
patch solves problems with EAX and blurred graphics

Additionally:

5 bonus adventures made by the Witcher community: ‘Deceits’, ‘Blight of the Bogs’, ‘Wraiths of the Quiet Hamlet’, ‘Wedding’, ‘Merry Witchmas’.

Cheers for the info! Been curious to see if removing the DRM protection will affect in any way the game's performance.

Getting it now. It appears only the DLH link is working (~225Kb/s). Filefront is down.
